Widespread DNA hypomethylation at gene enhancer regions in placentas associated with early-onset pre-eclampsia
13 Jun 2013
Abstract excerpt
Pre-eclampsia is a serious complication of pregnancy that can affect both maternal and fetal outcomes. Early-onset pre-eclampsia (EOPET) is a severe form of pre-eclampsia that is associated with altered physiological characteristics and gene expression in the placenta. DNA methylation is a relatively stable epigenetic modification to DNA that can reflect gene expression, and can provide insight into the...
